Witness with authority to be effective

To be an effective soul winner speak with authority

"For He, Jesus, taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes" Matt 2:29.
You must speak with authority, not arrogance. Jesus did! I have seen too many Christians try to witness with no joy, no life and no authority. You would not buy a product from someone who is not sold on his product and it who shows in the way he speaks. So it is with witnessing the gospel.

We really have the most important thing to tell a person.
We have the greatest news, the most wonderful salvation, the greatest person to present to a lost and confused world. Witness with that burning in your heart. That ought to come naturally as we tell people how God loves them and His son, the Lord Jesus suffered and died for our sins, paid our debt in full, rose again and was seen by hundreds. Seriously, I get goose bumps just writing this.

Please don't be mealy mouthed about God and the gospel. With the joy of the Lord in your heart, a smile of God on you face, and the authority of God in your voice, tell this gospel, this good news, in glowing terms. I love you,.ABC sumner
